Many years ago, Maurice, noticed the ‘Hot-Seats’ in a 12 Step program for ex-convicts that he helped run back in the early 1980’s was neither supportive nor confidential-he took steps to create a new one.This is how S.W.I.F.T. was evolved. Maurice, also became the director of Glendowynnne House, a group home for incarcerated youth, and served/helped many youth to move beyond the stories that led them there.He established S.W.I.F.T. and it grew to him running 4 out of the 5 groups across the GTA we had going at the time.We intend to continue this grass roots organization that he started, so his legacy will live on.Maurice’s love, care, compassion, no-nonsense ‘swift-kick’-positive & encouraging feedback and dedication to helping others over the last quarter of a century that has helped hundreds who’ve come for help will be sorely missed.
